The OPP will be looking to hire dispatchers and call takers early in the new year.
The police service is hosting its first Provincial Communications Centres Symposium on Feb. 4 and 5 in North Bay, where 25 participants can explore civilian job opportunities with the OPP.
“During the symposium, in-depth presentations and on-location tours of the North Bay Provincial Communications Centre, North East Region Headquarters, Forensic Identification Services facility and North Bay Detachment will provide a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at frontline and specialized policing services,” said OPP Sgt. Kristine Rae in a release.
The application deadline for the two-day symposium is Friday, Dec. 14 at 4:30 p.m. More information about the application process can be found by visiting the OPP website at opp.ca. or by calling the OPP’s North Bay Provincial Communications Centre at 705-495-7046.
